An excellent treatise on Jewish evangelism from a reformed perspective as well as an effective and appropriate critique into the current messianic movement. --Harry L. Reeder III Senior Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham, AL Finally, a clear, contemporary exposition on evangelizing the Jews. This long-needed book, written with mind and soul by one intimately acquainted with the subject, is packed with spiritual and practical instruction. It is a must read for all Christians and denominations involved in, or contemplating, Jewish evangelism. --Joel R. Beeke, President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary Jewish believers in Jesus have long been plagued with critical questions: How are we to live our lives? Are we to worship in churches with our gentile brothers and sisters or are we to commit ourselves to Messianic Judaism? This book is must reading for anyone who cares about the Jewish people. --Stan Telchin, Jewish Christian and Author of Betrayed! This book is written with a passion. The author is convinced that a visible unity of Jews and gentiles in Christ is a demonstration of the Gospel's transforming power. He longs for the day when God will sum up everything in Christ - everything in heaven and earth (Eph. 1:10) - and calls upon his readers to live for that day. --Richard B. Gaffin Jr., Professor of Biblical and Systematic Theology, Emeritus, Westminster Theological Seminary This is a supremely helpful analysis of Messianic Judaism and a host of biblical questions raised by that controversial movement. To what degree is it appropriate for Jewish believers in Jesus to preserve Jewish ceremonies and rabbinical traditions in their worship? Baruch Maoz is uniquely qualified to write on the subject, and he has done so with a charitable tone and point-by-point thoroughness that will benefit people on all sides of the controversy. I greatly appreciate his relentlessly biblical approach. --John MacArthur, President, The Master's University and Seminary
